Article: In recent years, a wave of returning to their hometowns to start their own businesses is quietly emerging among young people in China. According to the Ministry of Agriculture, from 2012 to the end of 2022, the number of people returning to their hometowns to start businesses has reached 12.2 million. Behind this number is the rise of new farmers, who have devoted themselves to the field of agriculture with new ideas and technologies, injecting new vitality into agriculture.
The emergence of new farmers stems from the reflection on modern urban life and the nostalgia for their hometown. They see the huge potential of the countryside and hope to change the face of their hometown through their own efforts, and at the same time create more possibilities for their future.
Unlike traditional farmers, new farmers have higher education and a broader perspective. They understand modern agricultural technology and management concepts, and can better adapt to market demand and improve agricultural production efficiency. At the same time, they also pay attention to environmental protection and sustainable development, and promote the transformation of agriculture in a green and ecological direction.
The emergence of new farmers has not only injected new vitality into agriculture, but also brought new changes to the rural areas. By introducing new technologies and ideas, they have improved agricultural production efficiency and increased farmers' incomes. At the same time, they also pay attention to the cultural and ecological protection of rural areas, and promote the development of rural areas in the direction of making them more livable and workable.
In the rush to return to their hometowns and start their own businesses, new farmers face many challenges. For example, the risk of agricultural production, competition in the market, shortage of funds, etc. However, they still choose to stick to the countryside and contribute to the development of their hometown.
The rise of new farmers is an inevitable trend in China's rural development. Their emergence has injected new vitality into agriculture and brought new changes to the countryside. We believe that in the future, more young people will join the ranks of new farmers and jointly promote the development of China's rural areas.
